One plain black Artist's Sketchbook became three. then four, then five... The first one is falling apart now, and in case it cannot be rebound, I'm transferring the pages to this blog. Expect a mix of old and new, the history of the garden, the plans, and the accomplishments, mixed with the current, ever-ongoing journey. The journals are a mix of notes, research, sketches, plans, magazine clippings, seed packets, photos, project plans and ideas, quotes and poems and philosphies... a learning process, with a goal in mind.... Enjoy.

A garden is a place that serves as an art project, an organic produce market, a spiritual practice, a pharmacy... It offers ongoing lessons in ecology, biology, chemistry, geology, meteorology... Gardening is creativity on a grand Utopian scale. We consult a nonexistent compass and so set off on a journey to Eden, which actually ends when we encounter a sense of place.

☛ A visitor to the garden sees the successes usually. The gardener remembers mistakes and losses, and imagines the garden in a year, and in an unimaginable future.
